Using Your VX760/VX765 Monitor  
Setting up the monitor  
Read all instructions before using the monitor and save them for later use.  
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.  
To set up the monitor:  
Attach the base  
Connect the video and power cables  
To attach the base:  
1 Carefully set the monitor on its side.  
2 Hold the base with the tab facing the back of the monitor and align the  
hooks on the base with the corresponding slots on the bottom of the  
monitor.  
3 Slide the base toward the front of the monitor so all hooks are securely in  
place. A retaining latch built into the base clicks into place when the base  
is correctly attached.  
4 Carefully set the monitor upright and place it on a sturdy, level surface.  
To connect the video and power cables:  
1 Position the monitor and your computer so you can easily get at the back  
panel of each. Make sure that all power cables can reach a correctly  
grounded electrical outlet.  
2 Connect the video cable to the matching (blue) video port on the back of  
your computer.  
3 Tighten the screws on the video cable connector to keep it from coming  
loose. Tightening the screws also prevents radio and TV interference.

Maintaining  
To keep the monitor in optimal working order:  
Do not block the ventilation holes.  
Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water.  
Keep the monitor away from radiators or heat vents.  
Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight.  
Keep the monitor away from any equipment that generates a magnetic  
field.  
Use a screen saver to avoid permanent image burn-in. For more information  
about screen savers, see the documentation that came with your computer.  
Cleaning  
Warning  
Clean the monitor using a soft cloth lightly moistened with water. Wipe the  
cabinet, glass panel, and controls.  
When the monitor is turned off, a small  
amount of electrical current still flows  
through the monitor. To avoid electrical  
shock, always unplug all power cables  
and modem cables from the wall outlets  
before cleaning the system.  
Do not use any type of abrasive pad or glass cleaner. You will permanently  
scratch the glass panel.

Important safety information  
Important safety information  
Warning  
Always follow these instructions to help  
guard against personal injury and  
damage to your Gateway product.  
Your Gateway product is designed and tested to meet the latest standards for safety of information technology equipment. However, to  
ensure safe use of this product, it is important that the safety instructions marked on the product and in the documentation are followed.  
Setting up your system  
Read and follow all instructions marked on the product and in the documentation before you operate your system. Retain all safety and  
operating instructions for future use.  
Do not use this product near water or a heat source such as a radiator.  
Set up the system on a stable work surface.  
The product should only be operated from the type of power source indicated on the rating label.  
If your product has a voltage selector switch, make sure that the switch is in the proper position for your area. The voltage selector switch  
is set at the factory to the correct voltage.  
Openings in the monitor case are provided for ventilation. Do not block or cover these openings. Make sure you provide adequate space,  
at least 6 inches (15 cm), around the system for ventilation when you set up your work area. Never insert objects of any kind into the  
monitor ventilation openings.  
Some products are equipped with a three-wire power cord to make sure that the product is properly grounded when in use. The plug on  
this cord will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into an outlet, contact an  
electrician to install the appropriate outlet.  
If you use an extension cord with this system, make sure that the total ampere rating on the products plugged into the extension cord  
does not exceed the extension cord ampere rating.  
If your system is fitted with a TV Tuner, cable, or satellite receiver card, make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically  
grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and buildup of static charges.  
Care during use  
Warning  
To prevent electric shock, never remove  
the cover. No user serviceable parts  
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service  
personnel.  
Do not walk on the power cord or allow anything to rest on it.  
Do not spill anything on the system. The best way to avoid spills is to avoid eating and drinking near your system.  
Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water. If the monitor does get exposed to moisture, unplug it and allow it to dry for  
24 hours. Call Gateway Customer Care for advice on whether the monitor is safe to turn back on.  
When the monitor is turned off, a small amount of electrical current still flows through the monitor. To avoid electrical shock, always  
unplug all power cables and modem cables from the wall outlets before cleaning the system.  
Unplug the system from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel if:  
The power cord or plug is damaged.  
Liquid has been spilled into the system.  
The system does not operate properly when the operating instructions are followed.  
The system was dropped or the cabinet is damaged.

Environmental information  
Environmental information  
The product you have purchased contains extracted natural resources that have been used in the manufacturing process. This product may  
contain substances known to be hazardous to the environment or to human health.  
To prevent releases of harmful substances into the environment and to maximize the use of our natural resources, Gateway provides the  
following information on how you can responsibly recycle or reuse most of the materials in your “end of life” product.  
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (commonly known as WEEE) should never be disposed of in the municipal waste  
stream (residential garbage collection). The “Crossed-Out Waste Bin” label affixed to this product is your reminder to dispose  
of your “end of life” product properly.  
Substances such as glass, plastics, and certain chemical compounds are highly recoverable, recyclable, and reusable. You can  
do your part for the environment by following these simple steps:  
When your electrical or electronic equipment is no longer useful to you, “take it back” to your local or regional waste collection  
administration for recycling.  
In some cases, your “end of life” product may be “traded in” for credit towards the purchase of new Gateway equipment. Call Gateway to  
see if this program is available in your area.  
If you need further assistance in recycling, reusing, or trading in your “end of life” product, you may contact us at the Customer Care  
number listed in your product’s user guide and we will be glad to help you with your effort.  
Finally, we suggest that you practice other environmentally friendly actions by understanding and using the energy-saving features of this  
product (where applicable), recycling the inner and outer packaging (including shipping containers) this product was delivered in, and by  
disposing of or recycling used batteries properly.  
With your help, we can reduce the amount of natural resources needed to produce electrical and electronic equipment, minimize the use of  
landfills for the disposal of “end of life” products, and generally improve our quality of life by ensuring that potentially hazardous  
substances are not released into the environment and are disposed of properly.
